Elian's POV
*****
"Wait, so you're telling me I just slept off?" He asked Kyren with a suspicious squint moments after Lucian and Axel walked out.
The last thing he remembered was... Being carried to bed by Kyren. He could've sworn he felt the rogue king rubbing his cheeks tenderly too.
So you could imagine his confusion when he woke up to the sound of Kyren and Lucian arguing over him.
"Yes." Kyren nodded with a light sigh, stepping away from the bed and placing his arms behind his back. "And it's understandable after everything you've been through. Which is why I left to search for a library. To... Keep myself occupied."
Elian's cheeks flushed but before he could part his lips, the system alerted him.
[Girl, I've got news. Right before you snoozed into la la land, my scanners picked up an almost inconceivable burst of magic. Guess who the source was?]
Elian's jaw clenched as he stared at Kyren and his charming grin.
